    Probably a prudent decision.


    The SSW internet footprint suggests this is an organisation of two people.


    Could be wrong.


    Perhaps Ms Cameron could explain the SSW structure.

    It is a little difficult to disown the owner of the SSW website. This probably explains why bad information never gets corrected.


    I missed the questions about ghosts and dogs.

    So, which people comprise SSW? Is it a secret?


    Who holds the funds?


    Was Ms Cameron in the area in 2011-2012?

    Perhaps you might have found it helpful to have read some RESET Development material.

    Appendix A Topographical Survey


    Of the bsp Consulting [sic]


    Area Z

    Camberwell Old Cemetery

    Drainage Strategy

    For Southwark Council


    30 June 2015


    Has a 0.5m resolution contour survey of the cemetery.


    It's easy to see the drainage run-off pattern.


    You could do a 3D landscape model like we used to do in primary school. It might help SSW people understand the topography.


    The right hand panels have the tree survey schedule which does not agree with the uncompleted SSW tree count.


    The schedule also has tree measurements.
